This is real story.
Once, I went for a course. I do not need to stay-in, but
since they said the camp was 'dirty', I 'die die' must stay in,
just to see what is there.
I have heard of old man praying in the dawn, and female singing
near the tree, and some trainee possessed etc. As a young
man, I just want to find out.
So, that night, the Orderly arranged me to stayed in the top
most level bunk. But he did not informed other staff. I
was the only one sleeping in that level. At about 11pm, I
heard a staff coming in to perform his night duty, and was singing
as he walk into the room I was assigned to.
As a manner of courtesy, I sit up from the bed wanting to greet
him, as he switched on the light when he walked in. Suddenly,
he rushed out the room shouting 'hantu, hantu'. I was
shocked, and I jumped down from the bed running after him, not
knowing what was wrong. He just kept running all the way to
the ground floor, without looking back.
By the time we reached the ground floor, I noticed that his face
was pale (he is a malay). He started scolding all kinds of
profanity words at me when he found out that the hantu was me. (he
was a Sergeant, much lower than my rank, but I took no offence at
that moment) Only than did I realied that I was mistaken as
ghost.
Till this day, whenever I tell relate this incident to my kids,
they still laugh over it.
